Mina just wants to help her team win, but she can't help but feel like she still has to prove she belongs. And when the competition with Swan heats up, she'll have to learn that being a teammate isn't about being the best player...it's about being the best friend.

The EVOL Algorithm
THE EVOL ALGORITHM by K. M. MOKETHIS IS NOT A DYSTOPIA. IT'S A UTOPIA IN THE MAKING. Matargo and the other children live in paradise, under the watchful eye of their mechs. Until the day they Float. No one talks about what happens after you Float. Or what exactly the giant black sphere of nothingness above them is. Why would they? They've never known a day of fear or suspicion in their lives. Like lambs. Awaiting slaughter. Book One in The EVOL Trilogy. "EVOL is one of the most original, ingenious and intriguing science fiction stories that I have read for a while. In these days of rampant AI and all the attendant worries and alarms that this overwhelming gift or curse is bringing to all humanity, it is comforting and exciting to encounter a story where the developing relationship between an AI and a young human is at the tremulous core of the story."- David Fickling (Editor and publisher of Philip Pullman)
Conversaciones con pajaros
Una exploración de la comunicación con los pájaros y las lecciones que pueden ensenarnos• Discute técnicas específicas del habla de los pájaros y ofrece revelaciones sobre muchas especies• Revisa la larga tradición de la “aviterapia” a través de la historia y en la literatura y las artes• Explica cómo hablar con los pájaros a través de sus cantos restablece la paz, calma la ansiedad y mejora la saludDurante décadas, Alan Powers ha estudiado las vocalizaciones de los pájaros, desarrollando la notable habilidad de imitar sus cantos y lograr que respondan y hasta cambien de tono. A lo largo de sus anos de estudio, ha descubierto que las aves pueden ensenarnos importantes lecciones sobre el mundo y sobre nosotros mismos. Como explica Powers, al crear una comunidad entre especies nos acercamos a una red atemporal de interconexión con toda la vida pasada y presente, lo que Giordano Bruno, filósofo del Renacimiento, llamó en latín Uni-versus, el “Todo convertido en Uno”. Al compartir su experiencia en el aprendizaje del habla de los pájaros y sus amplias observaciones sobre las influencias poéticas, espirituales y sanadoras de sus cantos, Powers explora su antiguo lenguaje y la profundidad de su significado. Explica que, para nosotros, hablar con las aves es como entonar una canción, aunque sus trinos están llenos de urgencias y matices, ya sea que se expresen sobre predadores o sobre el clima. Detalla cómo empezó a descubrir el habla de los pájaros, escuchando uno solo cada verano, para aprender sus muchas vocalizaciones y variaciones. Al discutir técnicas específicas, comparte revelaciones sobre la comunicación de muchas especies, incluyendo el discurso complejo e inteligente de los cuervos, la profundidad emocional de las gavias, la mímica de los arrendajos azules y el bello canto del tordo de madera. Powers explora la metafísica involucrada en el lenguaje de los pájaros y los humanos, y revisa la larga tradición de la aviterapia a través de la historia, la literatura y las artes. Además, comparte la presencia de pájaros en los poemas de Shakespeare y Emily Dickinson y en canciones de amor de todo el mundo, y examina cómo escritores famosos—de la altura de Keats, Catulo, san Francisco de Asís y el historiador francés Jules Michelet—encontraron que hablar con aves mejoraba sus estados mentales. Asimismo, explica que hablar con el lenguaje canoro de los pájaros puede restablecer la paz, calmar la ansiedad y mejorar la salud.
Pět kajícných
Neoficiální agent Winter se hodlá vypořádat s dobře organizovaným zlem, kterému se daří nejen v podsvětí pochybných podniků, drogových dealerů a pasáků, ale i nebezpečně blízko našim každodenním životům. Při pátrání po zmizelé sotva patnáctileté studentce Pavle se ocitá ve spirále násilí, v prostředí, kde platí zákony mnohem tvrdší než staré dobré „zub za zub, oko za oko“. Podaří se mu Pavlu najít živou? Přežije sám proti brutální přesile? A kde leží hranice mezi spravedlností a osobní mstou?
Ať už ale Wintr lavíruje nad jakoukoli propastí, nikdy ho neopouští jeho břitký jazyk – dar i prokletí, které mu přináší převahu i komplikace v těch nejméně vhodných chvílích. 5 kajícných je neortodoxní detektivka, temná, provokativní, plná intelektuálních hříček a ledově mrazivého humoru, balancující na hraně absurdity. Od první stránky udržuje čtenáře v napětí a zároveň ho nutí přemýšlet, zda lze temnotu porazit, aniž by se jí člověk sám ušpinil.
Adresát Bohuslav Havránek
Edice obsahuje odbornou i přátelskou korespondenci adresovanou Bohuslavu Havránkovi, přednímu lingvistovi 20. století. Zahrnuje období od roku 1924 do roku 1977. Její hlavní část spadá do čtyřicátých a padesátých let 20. století z pera trojice význačných vědců: Františka Trávníčka, Vladimíra Šmilauera a Bohuslava Havránka (jim úspěšně sekunduje lexikograf Alois Získal). Jejich práce, zájmy i osudy se v listech protínají a po válce vyhrocují; tvoří zajímavou i objevnou část celé korespondence a dokumentují, někdy i bouřlivě a bojovně, vývoj české lingvistiky v soudobých měnících se politických poměrech. Druhým tematickým okruhem korespondence jsou pak listy Havránkových žáků: Miloše Dokulila, Karla Horálka, Františka Kopečného a Oldřicha Králíka; jsou zaměřeny individuálněji, a i když zachycují řadu momentů reagujících na společenské události, dotýkají se převážně vědecké práce, často v souvislosti s konzultací či prosbou o pomoc při řešení problémů osobního i profesního charakteru. Kniha vychází k 100. výročí založení Pražského lingvistického kroužku.

How to Fly
A unique and all-encompassing exploration of the wonders of flight and the way different species have evolved different solutions to the problem of defying gravity – including humans. Flight fascinates us. We thrill to birds, we adore butterflies, we’re baffled by bats and we can hardly believe in pterodactyls. We worship angels and we compare love, religious ecstasy and artistic achievement to flight. We love the idea of flight so much we invented machines that at last allowed us to fly. Many died to make human flight possible. In How to Fly, bestselling writer Simon Barnes brings together all aspects of aerial life – evolution, technology, mythology, religion, nature and imagination – in a celebration of the wonders of flight. Barnes looks at the physics of flying and how flight has evolved quite separately four times over (or five, if we count humans). He examines how these creatures do it: from the nocturnal agility of bats and the bees that beat their wings 230 times per second, to the extinct reptile quetzalcoatlus with its 10-metre wingspan and the Arctic terns that travel 75,000km every year. He also explores how the great poets, mystics, saints, musicians and athletes have all, in their different ways, succeeded in getting high and getting us high. Sweeping in scope and packed with fresh insights, How to Fly is a book that sets free the eagle within us all.

The Mobius Book
The sudden, devastating breakup of a relationship in the winter of 2021 left Catherine Lacey depressed and adrift. She began cataloguing the wreckage of her life and the beauty of her friendships, a process that led to the writing of fiction that was both entirely imagined and strangely, utterly true. She soon realised that she was writing about her relationship with faith. Betrayed by the mercurial partner she had trusted and suddenly catapulted into the unknown, Lacey's appetite vanished completely, a visceral reminder of the teenage emaciation that followed the ending of her belief in God. Bending form, both she and her fictional characters recall gnostic experiences with animals, close encounters with male anger, grief-driven lust and the redemptive power of platonic love and narrative itself. A hybrid work that is both non-fiction and fiction with no beginning and no ending, The Möbius Book troubles the line between memory and imagination with an open-hearted defence of faith's inherent danger.
